Rebel Zero (dot com)

All of my Karmic Koala installs had missing icons. Apparently they’re defaulted to off. One check mark later and they returned.

Karmic introduced Gnome’s new sound setup which includes sound themes, but with no clear way of changing them. Here’s how I hacked them.

Every now and then, I find I need to reset the Gnome desktop environment. I’ve either hacked it beyond repair, come across an instability with an old home directory on a new machine, or would just like to start with a “fresh template” in which to build another masterpiece. Whatever the case, it’s easier than it sounds.
